Tidal acceleration refers to the gradual increase in the rotational period of a celestial body, such as a planet or moon, due to the gravitational interaction with another nearby body. This phenomenon is primarily observed in the context of the Earth-Moon system and the Earth-Sun system. In the case of the Earth and Moon, the gravitational pull of the Moon creates tides in the Earth's oceans.
